In spelling this week, we will be studying words with the consonants ph, gh, ck, and ng. Our spelling test will be on Friday, April 15th.
Social Studies: We will continue our unit on Citizenship. Students will identify various United States symbols such at the Liberty Bell, Mound Rushmore, the Star Spangled Banner, American Flag and the Statue of Liberty.
Math: This week we will work on telling time to the nearest 5 minutes. We will also begin to get into measurement to the nearest inch as well.
